Hello,
Thanks, that was a kick in the right direction.
However, it appears that 'cvs' invoked from
Ant (version 1.5) and 'cvs' invoked from the
command line behave differently.
This works from the command line:
prompt> cvs -n tag -F -R my-tag Foo
This does not work from Ant:
<cvs
cvsRoot=":pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvs/repository"
command="tag -F -R my-tag Foo"
failonerror="true"
noexec="true">
</cvs>
Note:
-n option prevents cvs from actually making
changes in repository
-r option apparently doesn't work for
tagging (cvs tag -r my-tag Foo). If I try
that command from the command line I get:
cvs [server aborted]: no such tag my-tag
Any help would be appreciated. I'd like to
do this tagging from Ant rather than the
shell script...
Thanks,
Otis
